Freshman forward Emmitt Holt prepares to shoot as Purdue junior center A.J. Hammons and senior guard Jon Octeus attempt to block Holt’s shot. Purdue had 10 blocks during their 83-67 victory against IU.

BLOCKED 83-67 IU can’t handle Hammons, falls to Purdue By Alden Woods aldwoods@indiana.edu | @acw9293

WEST LAFAYETTE — Before an inbounds play in the second half, IU forward Emmitt Holt and Purdue center A.J. Hammons had tangled themselves underneath the Boilermakers’ basket, and a referee had to intervene. A gold-clad Purdue fan put it simply. “Our guy’s the biggest guy,” he yelled. “Let him stand where he wants!” It summed up the night. Purdue had the biggest guys, and it knew that. The Boilermakers got everything they wanted inside — offensively and defensively — on their

way to an 83-67 blowout win. Hammons led the way, scoring 11 points and blocking eight shots to control the paint for Purdue. The 7-foot junior’s mere presence caused issues for a guard-heavy IU team. “It defies description, some of the drives we made on A.J,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. His size and shot-blocking ability inside allowed Purdue to push its defense further toward the perimeter, which in turn shut down IU’s high-volume 3-point attack. That pressure held the Hoosiers to a season-low four made 3-pointers SEE HAMMONS, PAGE 6

Purdue’s size dominates inside, scores 46 points in the paint By Sam Beishuizen sbeishui@indiana.edu | @Sam_Beishuizen

WEST LAFAYETTE — There was seemingly nothing IU could do against Purdue’s big men. Square them up one-on-one and a smaller IU forward gets beat with a post move and a layup. Double team them and another Purdue guard gets open for a highpercentage shot. The Boilermakers (13-8, 5-3) were content with taking whatever the No. 22 Hoosiers (15-6, 5-3) would give — and it worked. Purdue scored 46 points in the paint in an 83-67 win in West Lafayette on Wednesday night.

“The bottom line is, we were not good enough in the paint,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “We just didn’t guard the paint well enough tonight.” Purdue’s centers A.J. Hammons and Isaac Haas combined to shoot 5-for-6 to score 15 points. When Purdue had time to set up a half-court offense, the Purdue bigs overpowered IU in the post. When freshman forward Emmitt Holt was isolated against Haas early in the first half, the 7-foot-2 center created space with a drop-step to get under the basket for an easy score. The next possession, Purdue went right back to him. Junior guard Nick Zeisloft tried to double-team

By no means were Haas’ and Hammons’ combined stat lines particularly impressive, but that’s only because what they were doing wasn’t always measured by statistics. By simply being a threat to score, the Boilermakers’ big men opened up driving lanes. IU’s forwards, including Holt and sophomore SEE SIZE, PAGE 6

Seven performances, 18 short films, five features and a dance party are planned to take place at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater to help promote a sense of community between LGBT and nonLGBT people this weekend. The Bloomington PRIDE Film Festival will be Thursday through Saturday, showcasing performers and movies that bring to light the different issues of the LGBT community in an effort to educate and entertain those present. Sarah Perfetti, executive director of the Bloomington PRIDE Film Festival, said she expects attendance to grow this year. She estimated 3,000 will show up in the course of the three-day event in part because of predictions that Bloomington will have beautiful weather this weekend. Each day begins with a performance of some kind before screening the selected films. On Thursday, the aerial group AsaBela Aerials will perform, followed on Friday by the Quarryland Men’s Chorus and an appearance by 2013’s Miss Gay IU, Mocha Debeauté.

The IU Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Alumni Association will kick off its seventh annual GLBTAA Celebration Weekend with a social gathering at 4:30 p.m. Friday in the Neal-Marshall Black Cultural Center. “All faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends, please join us for this fabulous weekend and see why IU has received five stars and has been ranked in the top 50 LGBT-friendly universities and colleges in the nation,” said Mike Shumate, IU Foundation director and former GLBTAA president. Quarryland, a men’s choir comprised of local GLBT community members and allies, will entertain attendees during the social. GLBTAA will provide free buffettype food and a cash bar. The Association will also honor this year’s two recipients of the Distinguished Alumni Award: University Chancellor Emeritus and Vice President Kenneth R.R. Gros Louis and IU alumnus Steven L. Tuchman. Vice Chair MaryEllen Bishop will be in attendance, presenting the Distinguished Alumni Award to Tuchman. Doug Bauder, director of GLBT Student Support Services, will

Overlapping with the Bloomington PRIDE Film Festival, GLBTAA Celebration Weekend will host many additional events throughout the weekend. The GLBTAA Annual Board meeting will be from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at the DeVault Alumni Center. The meeting is open to the public and will include an election to determine which members’ terms will be expiring, Shumate said. A silent auction will take place from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Grazie Italian Eatery. Proceeds will support the IU LGBT community’s scholarship fund, Bauder said. Tickets are $20 and include rainbow martinis, hors d’oeuvres and more. Bauder said many attendees of the alumni weekend likely will attend Bloomington PRIDE Film Festival and the dance on Saturday at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. As a member of the Quarryland Men’s Chorus and sporadic PRIDE Film Festival-goer, Bauder said he is most excited for the liveliness the festivities of the weekend brings to Bloomington.

Helen Geyer, professor at the Institute of Musicology Weimar at Jena, gives a talk during the Jacob School of Music Lecture Series. The lecture was titled “Melting Pot Central Germany: Processes of Transfer from Italy, Reception, and Special Phenomena from the 16th to the Early-18th Century.”

Jacobs lecture series begins By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali

Beginning in the 16th century, there was a large stimulation through the art world particularly ignited by the medium of printed musical anthologies. Helen Geyer, professor of musicology at the Institute of Musicology Weimar at Jena since 1995, led a discussion focusing on the transitions in the open-minded decades since the 16th century, where the curiosity for and the participation in the most updated tendencies was a stimulating factor for courts, church chapels and private circles. Geyer spoke Wednesday evening as part of the IU Jacobs School of Music lecture series. The lecture compared interests from both commer-

cial and religious entities, from churches and courts to rural communities found in the countryside. Geyer stopped the lecture halfway through to have the audience listen to pieces through the decades in order to actually hear the difference of exposure and transition of culture within the notes. The land of 16th century Italy and Germany was divided into several small courts not important enough on their own to form a military by themselves. As a result, coalitions needed to form in order to have legitimate defense systems. A new commercial class formed from these coalitions, allowing new courts to form across lands. Following the 30 Years’ War, a rich cultural life developed everywhere

quality to give praise to God,” Geyer said. “It’s quite difficult to understand because it was such a rich commercial moment.” Geyer said she accepts half of the invitations she receives to speak at universities as a guest lecturer. She believes the interaction with students that appreciate this particular style of music is nothing but positive. Geyer has a background in the history of music between the sixteenth and the early twentieth century, with specializations that include opera and oratorio, music at the Venetian Ospedali and church music. She founded the Academia Musicalis Thuringiae and is vice president of the Centro Tedesco di Studi Veneziani in Venice.

that suffered a significant aftermath. This commercialization spread between 10 different areas of Germany and Italy, allowing the idea of printed music to spread as well. Education and knowledge flourished due to this exposure of contemporary musical styling. “This is the music of the helpers,” Geyer said just before she previewed a piece for the audience. Geyer went into detail regarding the particular religious and cultural ideals the music exemplified for most individuals at the time. Printed music was the connection between church, court and commerce all in one — a revolution in the eyes of the 16th century. “Music of the highest

WIUX 99.1 FM, IU’s student-run radio station, has been nominated for 13 awards by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System. Nominations were announced by the IBS on Jan. 14. The IBS is a nonprofit foundation of student-run radio organizations, of which WIUX is a member. Members of WIUX will attend an IBS conference in New York City, held March 6-8. Radio stations from colleges across the nation will convene to listen to speeches, go on tours and have their work judged in various categories. To represent the station, WIUX will send general manager Carolyn Suna, station manager Sarah Thompson, news director Chelsea Barras and web content director Jessica Yarvin to the event. Suna and Thompson are scheduled to give a talk on how to move a radio station and build a community at the conference. Of the nearly 60 submissions sent in by the station, 13 were selected to advance in the competition, including the individual director nominations. Several board members and leaders on the staff were acknowledged in this way for their individual contributions. Nominations spanned several categories, including best news interview, best sports play-by-play, best liner, best station ID, best live music broadcast, most innovative program, best underwriting campaign and best website. “When I first came to WIUX in 2011 we never did anything with IBS, and I think that as an

organization we definitely have gotten more professional,” Suna said. This is the second year in which WIUX entered content in the national conference. Last year, the station submitted two interviews for evaluation, both of which were chosen to move further in the competition. One of the submissions, a news interview with comedy group Whitest Kids U’ Know, completed by former news director Christina Bernardin and Morgan Wooderson, received an award. “It’s legitimizing, in a way, to see all of the work that our members put in,” Public Relations Director Sam Velazquez said. “To see their efforts reflected, recognized and, in some cases, rewarded is self-actualizing for many of our members.” A feature of WIUX, which is nominated for most innovative program in the upcoming event, is B-Side radio, which runs separately from the station’s on-air content. Since it is not FCC regulated, B-Side is able to push the boundaries of what a radio station can be. “Having no restrictions on B-Side gives us a lot more room to create these things that can make us a unique radio station,” Suna said. Velazquez said the station has high aims for the competition and what comes beyond. “We’re going to push that number (of awards) even higher in the future,” Velazquez said. “We want to put as many things in the conversation as we can, and that will hopefully be reflected in these awards.”

RHA votes on recycling bins Students discuss race issues By Ashleigh Sherman aesherma@indiana.edu | @aesherma

Recycling bins may soon be placed in every residence hall and recyclable or reusable utensils may soon replace non-recyclable utensils in dining halls. The Residence Hall Association addressed recycling and internal affairs at a meeting Wednesday. In a 25-3 vote, RHA voted to pass a resolution encouraging Residential Programs and Services to place recycling bins in every room in every residence hall. RPS has already placed recycling bins in every room in Teter Quadrangle and Rose Avenue Residence Hall. According to the IU Office of Sustainability ResourceUse and Recycling Group, recycling rates in Teter Quadrangle have increased after the placement of recycling bins in every room last year. Recycling rates in other residence halls, however, lag behind the recycling rates in other campus locations. Nathan Manworren, McNutt Quadrangle president, said recycling would be handled just as trash is handled. Residents would be responsible for removing the recycling from their rooms and placing it in the appropriate container. Joe Hunt, Ashton Residence Hall president, said

he estimates each recycling bin would cost $15. The costs of each recycling bin would be passed onto RPS, which would then be passed onto students through room and board fees, Hunt said. Because of this, members of RHA suggested that the recycling bins be placed in residence halls over a series of years. In a unanimous vote, RHA also voted to pass a resolution encouraging RPS to replace the current non-recyclable utensils in dining halls with recyclable utensils. “One of the annoying problems with recycling at IU is how complicated it is, and one of those complications is that plastic utensils, which are plastic, cannot be recycled with other plastics,” RHA Director of Sustainability Bronson Bast said. In a 6-21 vote with one abstention, RHA voted not to pass a resolution changing the structure of the RHA executive board. The resolution would have removed the position of the vice president of programming and dissolve the programming board. The center presidents, RHA directors and members of the RHA executive board would assume the tasks of the vice president of programming. Many RHA members, however, raised concern that the position of the vice president of programming and the

programming board is too important to remove. In a unanimous vote, save for one abstention, RHA voted to pass a resolution changing RHA compensation. A bill proposed last academic year recommended a change in compensation of executives and directors. The new bill, however, proposed no change in compensation of executives and directors. Executives currently make about $7,000 per semester, presidents currently make about $3,000 and directors currently make about $1,500. Rather, the new bill proposed the responsibilities of executives and directors be outlined in clearer detail and that a list of obtainable tasks for executives and directors to complete each semester also be outlined in clearer detail. Scholarship would then be determined based on the achievement of these responsibilities and obtainable tasks. “You would not hire someone for a consulting job and give them $5 million and then after a poor job performance say, ‘Keep your $5 million,’” Director of Social Advocacy Andrew Guenther said. Though the sections regarding a change in compensation were removed, the sections of the bill regarding a clarification of responsibilities and tasks and a determination of scholarships were passed.

With hot tea and warm cookies, students took their seats at the Asian Cultural Center on Wednesday night. Students sat in the conference room of the ACC for “Social Justice Defined: Thoughts on Affirmative Action,” part of the “Over a Cup of Tea” series. Kevin D. Brown, Richard S. Melvin Professor of Law and professor at Maurer School of Law, led the main discussion. Brown is an IU alumnus and Yale scholar. He later became the second man of color to work at a law firm in the state of Indiana. He has also written a book on social justice and minorities titled “Because of Us.” This year marks the 54th anniversary of the Executive Order 10952, which encouraged the implementation of affirmative action. “(Affirmative action) is taking into account race and ethnicity in the admissions process in order to create a diverse student body,” Brown said. After providing a background of the history of minorities in America over the last century, Brown

discussed American values and how they relate to affirmative action now. He said America, as a country, values individualism and people generally do not identify themselves to only one race or culture. He also said this value contradicts the Supreme Court’s decision in 2003 to continue implementing affirmative action in university admission processes. “As a professor, I don’t think I have to debate with any of my colleagues in the law school about the benefits of having a diverse group of students,” Brown said. Brown said he believes a diverse campus is most beneficial for the student body because “if you only interact with someone who has the same values and views as you, you don’t learn anything.” Brown compared statistics of 2013 poverty rates, SAT scores and percentages of Americans with college degrees who identify as African American, Latino, Caucasian or Asian. “Asians would dominate the admission rates if admissions were based purely on SAT scores,” Brown said. He said Asians are not included in academic affirmative action, so they have to work harder to get

into college. He said Asians are doing particularly well in American society, as they are the leading race in all three areas he compares. Brown said, according to the statistics, whites may soon be in close competition with Asians for college admission. Brown closed the discussion by allowing students to comment on and ask questions regarding the evening’s topic. Many students said they have experienced affirmative action in other countries as well as America. Sophomore Aiman Dahamat said he has experienced affirmative action in his home country of Malaysia. Brown nodded his head in response to Dahamat’s comment. “You can see (affirmative action) being very successful all over the world,” Brown said. “It only seems to be a problem — or topic of controversy in America — because we are a country that historically values individuality.” Junior and chemistry major Chiang Tieng Tan said this discussion “speaks to my heart” because she has been a minority her whole life in Malaysia and America.

Hospital location a big talking point in mayoral race By Neal Earley njearley@indiana.edu

With the prospect that Bloomington Hospital might move from its downtown location, mayoral candidates Darryl Neher and John Hamilton are urging IU Health to stay on its Second Street location. In December, the Bloomington Herald-Times reported that IU Health submitted a formal request for a new replacement facility. As of now, the location of a potential new facility is being debated by IU Health. In an interview with the Herald-Times, IU Health Bloomington Hospital president and CEO Mark Moore said the board of directors plans to come to a decision by this February. “I think IU Health and Bloomington Hospital needs to do right by the community and stay in our downtown,” Neher said about IU Health’s pending decision. “But given their inaction and lack of engagement, we need to make sure we continue this conversation in a way that is willing to discuss accountability and how we move forward from this point on.” The possible new site for Bloomington Hospital is North Park off of Curry Pike, where IU Health owns land, but city officials are trying to convince the IU Health board of directors to renovate the current site. Both candidates said they are worried about the potential negative economic impact for the city if Bloomington Hospital moves. Currently, Bloomington Hospital is located downtown, easily accessible for many of Bloomington’s residents who work there and go as patients. According to U.S. News and World Report, Bloomington Hospital employs 856 people, full-time and parttime, making it one of the larger employers in the city. “This is a once in a century kind of decision,” said Hamilton, Democratic candidate for mayor. “It is incredibly

important for the sustainability of our city, for downtown vitality, for economic health and for helping people live and work close together.” Neher, who mentioned the issue in his campaign announcement speech, said the city has been trying to work with IU Health on this issue since 2007 and has been disappointed with IU Health’s engagement on the issue. Moore said he has yet to make a decision and Hamilton said he trusts the Bloomington Hospital president will give both sites fair consideration. If Bloomington Hospital does move to the North Park site, its location would be closer to Interstate 69, which is currently being built in the western portion of the county. Some argue the North Park location would give easier access to out-of-county patients, which make up approximately 50 percent of all patients at Bloomington Hospital, Moore said in a an interview with the Herald-Times. “I think it’s a red herring,” Hamilton said of the North Park’s access to I-69. “I think it is true that the hospital would want good access to the highway, but whether it’s two and a half minutes off the highway or four and a half minutes off the highway is not a big difference in terms of what people are looking for.” Both current mayor Mark Kruzan and former mayors John Fernandez and Tomi Allison have said they want to see IU Health keep Bloomington Hospital where it currently is. Neher said the process frustrates him, especially given that the city has tried to offer solutions to IU Health’s concerns. “Me and other city leaders have been trying to engage hospital leadership offering solutions to keep the hospital downtown,” Neher said. “But that lack of engagement has made it pretty clear that they’re not ready to have that dialogue at this point.”

Thousands of crows descended upon Bloomington this winter and are here to stay until brooding season ends in March.

Droppings cover downtown By Hannah Alani halani@indiana.edu | @HannahAlani

It’s nightfall and, like clockwork, manager Kristen Starkey rolls her eyes at the arrival of unwanted guests at Grazie’s doorstep. Crows. They flock to the courthouse square at sundown. Cawing, screeching, swooping and, of course, pooping. This winter’s murder has filled trees and covered parking meters since December, and they’re here to stay until the end of breeding season in March, according to IU Public Health Manager Graham McKeen. “They seem to pick out new spots every season or two,” McKeen said via email. “We’ve had them roost on campus in past years, and I’ve personally noticed them around the courthouse in high numbers this winter.” McKeen works for IU’s Office of Environmental Health and Safety, which is responsible for inspections, compliance and enforcement for health and safety issues. He said there are a few theories as to why crows tend to hang in out in urban areas, like downtown Bloomington. “The urban environment provides protection from predators such as owls, as they tend to not inhabit urban environments,” McKeen said. “These areas also tend to have nice big trees, especially in Bloomington as we are a ‘tree city.’”

For JL Waters employee Sam Wright, the crows are just a huge annoyance. “It’s intimidating when there’s 100 in a tree right above you,” Wright said. “It’s like walking outside into an Alfred Hitchcock movie.” Wright keeps a long brush in his truck specifically for the removal of crow excrement from his windshield. His wipers just smear it everywhere, he said. “We couldn’t remember back when I was a kid having the crow migration be this bad,” Wright said. “Who knows? I guess the crows do.” Starkey, Wright and other employees on the square try to park in the covered parking garage on Fourth Street so their cars won’t be destroyed by the end of the night. The employees at Grazie Italian Eatery have learned to avoid the courthouse while walking to their cars, or else they’ll be rained on with crow droppings, Starkey said. “People don’t want to park on the square,” Starkey said. “I wouldn’t blame people for not wanting to come in unless they had an umbrella.” The employees also said, though the crows annoy customers, sales have not dropped this winter at Grazie or JL Waters. However, the sound of about 1,000 crows cawing can be heard inside, even from the back of the restaurant, Starkey said. “You hear them every night,” Starkey said. “Every car

gets destroyed. It smells, all the meters are covered. You want to run in here with an umbrella.” As Bloomington resident Kathy Friend carefully put coins in a parking meter that was plastered with crow droppings, she was not bothered by the mess. “It’s part of living in the city,” Friend said. “I mean, have you ever been to New York? It is what it is.” Starkey and Wright said they and their customers worry about the health risks of the crow migration, and wonder what the city plans to do regarding clean up. Though the fairly minimal health risks from crows tend to be exaggerated, risk increases when large amounts of crows and humans are in the same area, such as Bloomington’s square, McKeen said. “The accumulation of droppings and feathers could pose a risk of exposure to microorganisms and pathogens,” McKeen said. The birds could contribute to an increase in exposure to histoplasmosis, a flu-like illness caused by fungal spores found in crow droppings. “Many who are exposed will never get ill, but people with compromised immune systems or the young or the elderly could get a pretty serious illness,” McKeen said. “Dry areas and conditions can increase the risk of these spores or other pathogens getting into the air and potentially exposing humans.”

The City of Bloomington does power wash the sidewalks around the square and has done it twice so far, according to Susie Johnson, Director of Public Works. Employees can only power wash when it is above freezing. Monroe County takes responsibility for power washing the interior of the square, though it has only happened a few times, county spokesperson Angie Purdie said. “We just did it last week when it was nice, but when we came in Monday, it was all completely back,” Purdie said. The County is looking into a management plan for the migratory crows, who will be back this fall, Purdie said. “They’re not going to go away,” Purdie said. “Hopefully we’ll find another place for them to roost that has the least disturbance to the community.” The Parking Enforcement personnel have been cleaning the meters two to three times per week in an effort to keep them as clean as possible, BPD Cpt. Joe Qualters said. The crows will continue to be unwanted dinner guests and windshield coverers until they fly away for the summer. Until then, it’s learning to live together, Purdie said. “Did they come here or have we expanded into their area? We don’t know what happened first,” Purdie said. “We just have to find a way to coexist.”

House robbed Tuesday From IDS reports

The Bloomington Police Department received a call around 4:45 a.m. Tuesday alerting officers of a possible robbery on the 3000 block of South Acadia Court, Sgt. Pam Gladish said. Officers first spoke to the reported victim’s wife, who made the 911 call. She told officers her husband, 38, didn’t want to report the robbery to police, but she waited a few minutes and then called BPD without him knowing. The reported victim was lying on a couch around 4:35 a.m. when he heard a knock at his front door. A cleanshaven Caucasian male around 20 years old was at the door and asked the reported

victim for gas money for his car. The victim said he didn’t have money. The man at the door reportedly punched the victim in the face and took money from his hand. The subject then got into a gray or dark-colored four-door vehicle and fled the scene. The reported victim told officers he didn’t know the subject, but he was not willing to give officers any more details. Sgt. Pam Gladish said the incident report states the victim changed his story from stating the subject was alone to saying there were actually one or two people in the vehicle. The victim did not need medical treatment.

Man arrested for dealing heroin to BPD informant From IDS reports

Kyle J. Taylor, 27, of Bloomington, was arrested Tuesday morning for dealing cocaine or narcotics and conspiracy to deal heroin, both of which are felonies. Bloomington Police Department Sgt. Pam Gladish said BPD supervised the investigation Jan. 26 when Taylor intentionally delivered heroin to an informant. The informant advised BPD that there was a possibility Taylor would sell heroin, Gladish said. BPD detectives set up the transaction, where the informant purchased what is believed to be heroin — a

brown powdery substance inside a folded piece of paper. The initial field test came back positive, but the BPD is still waiting for the results from the official state lab test, Gladish said. A short time later, officers were able to locate Taylor in a business on the City’s west side, where he was arrested. When officers interviewed him, he denied possessing heroin. Taylor was subsequently transported to the Monroe County Jail. A second controlled exchange was arranged but never occurred due to Taylor’s arrest. Andy Wittry

When Snapchat is all grown up

Don’t blame culture for your deeds

Riley Zipper is a junior in English.

On Tuesday, Snapchat, the world leader of making selfies and sexts disappear, debuted a new service called Discover that will let other companies publish multimedia content via the app. Eleven channels are available at the outset of the service, including CNN, ESPN, Vice, Comedy Central and Yahoo News. Why is Snapchat doing this? Two reasons: to advertise and to build its image. No longer is Snapchat just for kids. They have CNN now, and kids don’t care about CNN. They’re becoming a serious multimedia company. In 2013, they turned down an offer from Facebook for a $3 billion acquisition. That’s a lot of money to pass up, especially for a company as young as Snapchat. And especially for a company that wasn’t making any revenue. This was a smart move for the service. I checked out Discover, and it’s actually kind of cool. Accessing it is a little clumsy, but once you’re in, you can tap on any one of the 11 channels to see whatever content you wish, from Cosmopolitan to National Geographic to Vice. I tapped on the CNN logo and was greeted by a short clip about the blizzard in the Northeast. I swiped right and glossed an article about how Hillary Clinton doesn’t have a Facebook page. Bummer. I swiped right a few more times and saw the most important thing about the service: an advertisement. But getting users to actually make use of Discover will be tricky. It offered nothing that I couldn’t get from my Facebook newsfeed or by visiting the websites of my favorite news sources. I doubt I will use it very often, if at all. Snapchat has a lot of potential here. However, they have to give users a reason to dig through the app to actually get to Discover. As of now, it’s kind of gimmicky. But I like the direction they’re going in. I never really used the app in the first place so I’m not exactly the target audience. But who knows, maybe it’ll catch on with power users. I usually get a lot of news from Facebook and Twitter by following or liking the pages of news sources I enjoy visiting. And there is absolutely no reason why Snapchat can’t get into the game, too. It’s about time they grow up a little and realize the potential they have in playing a game of business and in making some revenue. But that’s the trend with social networks. They build up a user base for a couple years by being really cool and innovative without ads, then sell out and make a boatload of cash. Honestly, it’s not a bad business method. You’ve all seen “The Social Network,” so you know how it goes. I hear a sequel is in the works. This time it’s going to be about Snapchat. zipperr@indiana.edu

Gitmo must go WE SAY: Shut down the torture chamber During his recent State of the Union address, President Obama reiterated his promise to close Guantanamo Bay operations before he leaves office. Obama made the same empty promise when he took office back in 2008. Today, 122 prisoners remain. His timing seems almost uncanny, as it nearly coincided with the release of Mohamedou Ould Slahi’s “Guantanamo Diary.” Slahi, a 44-year-old former electrical engineer, has been held at Guantanamo for more than a decade, yet he has never been charged. His book chronicles the horrifying experiences he faced. Slahi speaks eloquently of the compromised ethics he witnessed repeatedly, saying “crime is something the government redefines whenever it pleases.” Upon taking a closer look at the piece, the reader finds an equally chilling level of government censorship present within the book.

Words, phrases and even entire pages have been redacted from the diary. After seven years of arguments and counterarguments, the government has agreed to publish the book as long as it could edit the book first. While the government claims these redactions stemmed from potential risks to national security, Slahi’s attorneys believe the government has something shameful to hide about its torture and interrogation policies. The arguments made by Slahi’s representatives seem logical, as the sorts of torture detailed in his book are appalling. Intense beatings, subhuman embarrassment and manipulative lines of questioning are abundant in Slahi’s accounts. The handwritten manuscript and narrated excerpts on Soundcloud are available online to pull readers into the figurative space of Slahi’s prison sentence.

In the face of international pressure to close the Guantanamo Bay facility, it is quite understandable that our government would do its best to hush any sort of frank exposure. The Editorial Board believes Slahi’s book is well within line. The compelling tale of an uncharged inmate might fuel the lastditch effort Obama needs to progress toward a final closing of the Guantanamo Bay facility. The end of Guantanamo will spell victory for both international relations and human rights activists who have decried the existence of the prison since its conception. Slahi, who has maintained his innocence and has never been tried, has had more than a decade of his life taken from him by an unjust political machine fed by fear. In the face of this xenophobia, it is time for the United States to make amends and release these prisoners before any more harm can come their way.

To be identity or not to be identity? Some of my peers believe it is a moral obligation for bearers of labels (of sexuality, gender, race and so on) to accept these labels with weary resignation and wear them as evidence they accept themselves for being “different.” Many use their labels to protest against those intolerants who dare to reject them, and this is certainly a compelling argument. If people wear their labels proudly, it shows that now, in our new modern society, we accept everyone for who they are and are open-minded enough to accept our differences. However by doing this, we stifle our individual identities. By forcing people who exhibit a certain characteristic into conveniently labeled categories, we are denying them the right to be fully recognized as an individual. You are no longer your own person, but a representative of a group you have

some ties to. That is not to say we should not and can not assign labels to people, but we should only assign those labels in the relevant contexts. You can label a gay pride movement as such, but it would be foolish to call a large crowd of LGBT people a “Gay Pride Movement.” The context is important, and context has a beginning and an end. Many modern black and LGBT writers have identified this as a source of contention. They feel they are not expected to write about any other issues than being a black writer in a whitedominated society or being a gay writer in a predominantly heteronormative society. Are there circumstances when one should wear a label proudly to show solidarity? Of course. But this is not the case all the time.

In an interview, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie describes how she “used to insist that I (she) was simply a writer, that I (she) rejected tags before ‘writer,’ especially tags based on race like ‘black’ or ‘African,’ because they are not value-free.” But, she continues, she realized she could not “be just a ‘writer’ all the time; there are situations in which I (she) will simply have to accept some tag before it.” Here, the qualification hinges on the temporariness of the label. Otherwise, the label becomes constricting rather than empowering. Much of this conflict, in part, comes from the distinctly American way of simplifying issues to better manage them — you can either hide in shame of who you truly are or you can wear your heart on your sleeve. You either are or you are not. But these two

generalizations do not account for the complexity of the human race. Even the activist must go home and return to his day job. In the end, I say we should resist any sort of categorization. There are those who will take up the public battle against injustice and there are others ducking and weaving in and out of identities. In the end, we’re all individual units of developed life, and we will only be individuals. Many individuals may unite under one common cause, but they are not that cause. They are simply themselves. allenjo@indiana.edu

The Vanderbilt University rape trial has recently roused a great deal of attention. The trial involved two former football players, Brandon Vandenburg and Cory Batey, who raped an unconscious girl in a dorm June 23, 2013. It happened in the span of 30 minutes but changed someone’s life forever. After 19 long months, the trial finally took place. A three-hour deliberation was all it took for the jury to find both defendants guilty of sexual assault. Although I am grateful for the justice the verdict will bring, what shocked me the most about this case was the defense argument that Vanderbilt culture influenced Batey and ultimately led to the assault. I guess that could be considered marginally convincing. After all, there was alcohol involved — something that is not uncommon on college campuses. Batey had been in trouble twice with ethics at the school before the assault and was sactioned for smoking marijuana. Furthermore, there is a stigma about college culture stronger than any stench of booze, drugs and dope. The substance abuse and the sexual promiscuity on college campuses influence people to act in ways they otherwise would not. Yet, I think this cultural argument is problematic. Supposing we buy this defense argument, we would be making any individual’s actions and wrongdoings excusable due to the influence of an entire society. It would express the notion that people who rape are not really responsible for it, but victims themselves in the turmoil of rape culture. It’s the culture that is to blame. Sure, on an abstract level, this could be the case. However, it makes little sense when we put ourselves in the shoes of the victim. The girl had obviously been subject to non-consensual physical penetration. Such a thing could not have been achieved without the help of a person. And yet, if we were to say the person who committed the act was not wholly responsible, then it would make little sense. The problem here is evident: culture does not rape people. People rape people. We cannot blame culture for the misconduct of an individual. Thus, I think when talking about sexual abuse on college campuses, it is wrong to accredit certain actions to some kind of campus culture. For one, it gives off the wrong idea about college life in general and facilitates a negative social stigma. College is a time of intellectual engagement and personal growth. Yet, the negative connotations given to the phrases “campus culture” and “college life” give off the idea that everyone just wants to get drunk, get high and have sex. Not only is this degrading to us as college students, but it also becomes an excuse for misconduct. And while the former problem might be somehow dismissed, the Vanderbilt rape case has shown the latter is definitely not. nywu@indiana.edu

IU losing streak hits 4 in East Lansing, Mich. By Grace Palmieri gpalmieri@indiana.edu @grace_palmieri

IU Coach Tom Crean yells from the sideline during the Hoosiers’ 83-76 loss to Purdue Wednesday at Mackey Arena. Crean couldn’t get his players to stop Purdue’s bigs as the Boilers scored 46 points in the paint.

How to beat IU: The formula WEST LAFAYETTE — The secret on how to stop the IU men’s basketball team is out. The last two times the Hoosiers have stepped out on the court, they’ve been taken advantage of with a two-level attack. Here’s how you beat IU. First, when on offense against IU, pound the ball inside. Punish the undersized IU forwards with whatever bigs you have. Even better if you are Purdue and have two seven-footers on the roster. The Hoosiers will front you, send extra defenders behind you and try to prevent the pass inside. They know it’s their weakness, but once you get the ball in there, you might as well count the two points. Second, switch every ball screen. IU can shoot and everyone knows it by now. Do whatever you have to do to prevent open shots. Put your center on junior guard Yogi Ferrell if you must. Just don’t give up the open three. Purdue junior guard Rapheal Davis said the team knew this. IU’s reputation as a shooting team precedes itself. “They shoot the ball very well so we limited their open looks,” Davis said. “We were physical early.” That was the essence of

Purdue’s game plan tonight and it worked perfectly. The Boilermakers strangled the Hoosier shooters to the tune of 4-of-13 shooting from deep. That’s the second straight game IU’s opponent has dominated it inside. Ohio State scored 42 points in the paint and Purdue scored 46. Those are unacceptable numbers and everyone in the Big Ten will take notice of them. The problem is, there isn’t really much IU can do about it. IU isn’t going to get any bigger until junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea returns. IU sophomore forward Collin Hartman originally looked good after MosqueraPerea went down, and, until tonight, still provided an offensive spark. I’ve been waving Hartman’s banner since after the Penn State game. He provides a completely different look to the offense that few teams can match up with. But he struggled tonight. He was visibly exhausted from being matched up with junior and freshman centers A.J. Hammons and Isaac Haas. He didn’t have anything left to give on offense. The thing about IU is, they’re rarely out of a game because of their shooting.

Casey Krajewski is a senior in journalism.

IU Coach Tom Crean said that instead of persistently attacking Hammons inside, the Hoosiers should have moved the ball more and found those open looks outside. “We don’t need to be complicated,” Crean said. “We don’t have guys that are good enough to play a complicated game. So the hole we built for ourselves was not moving the ball the way we needed to offensively.” Crean said IU should have dribbled into the lane and then made the pass to the perimeter. Instead, Hammons finished the game with a career-high eight blocks. Even if IU did hit some threes against Purdue, they still weren’t coming back. They simply couldn’t stop the Boilermakers. That’s a fundamental rule of basketball. If you can’t make stops, you can’t win games. And right now, this IU team simply can’t make stops. crkrajew@indiana.edu

THE SPORT S’TORI

The only thing deflated is Super Bowl 49 Aaron Rodgers, Troy Aikman, Sen. Dan Coats, Louis C.K., Bill Nye. More talking heads have debated this issue than there are big heads in the general admission bleachers of Assembly Hall. Anyone who’s anyone has weighed in on “Deflategate” needs to let it go. Whatever pressure was lacking from those footballs went directly to the media coverage — it’s full of hot air. What’s worse, we wasted a whole week on over-inflated commentary while a Super Bowl that has the potential to be the greatest of this decade was treated as an afterthought. This Sunday, the defending champion Seattle Seahawks will take on the last team to win two straight titles, the New England Patriots. The Patriots will compete for their fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy in 13 seasons. During the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick era, New England has now made six Super Bowl appearances. And yes, I think the media hype surrounding DeflateGate is connected to the Patriots’ winning reputation. If this was any other team, this story would be a blip on the ESPN

ticker — a story that lasts a day, maybe half. This matchup is rich with story lines: Brady versus Richard Sherman. Belichick versus Pete Carroll. Yet here we are sitting around like adolescent boys — talking about our balls. The past week and a half of media coverage has played out more like an “Saturday Night Live” skit than anything, with press conferences so chock-full of innuendo they would delight any 13-year-old. I’m all for protecting the integrity of the game. But if we’re choosing our battles when faced with issues such as player safety, drug use and domestic violence, I think I’ll fight for something a little more substantive. Sure, Deflategate will fill the sports section, but where’s the integrity, the ingenuity, the journalism? We’ve spent a week and a half on an investigation without a definitive conclusion. Now, it’s time to talk about the real news, the story that deserves to be hyped. It’s time to talk about Super Bowl 49. Both teams overcame adversity to reach the Super Bowl. For New England, it was a 41-14 rout loss against

Kansas City. For Seattle, it was an improbable come-from-behind win in the NFC championship game, which deserved coverage, unlike “balls.” If you have a bone to pick with the Patriots — and let’s face it, who doesn’t? — then the Super Bowl 49 venue is your storyline to watch. Glendale, Ariz., is the site of the famous David Tyree helmet catch, the play that lost New England a perfect season in the 2008 Super Bowl. Should Russell Wilson hand the Patriots their second loss in Phoenix, he will have won his second straight title, ushering in a new era of football. However, should Brady win, it will culminate 13 years of success: history, dynasty and legacy cemented. Yet, despite all the allure of Super Bowl 49, I can’t shake the feeling it has already been deflated. vziege@indiana.edu

IU Coach Teri Moren called her team confident. It was New Year’s Eve, and the Hoosiers had just defeated then-No. 24 Michigan State. Moren commended her team’s communication. She had positive words for a slew of players: Jenn Anderson’s 19 points – and her three drawn charges – Tyra Buss’s 15 rebounds, Amanda Cahill’s doubledouble, with 13 points and 13 rebounds. After struggling from deep in recent games, the Hoosiers went back to getting more post touches. IU out-rebounded the Big Ten’s best rebounding team by 15. Midway through the second half, IU’s lead was 27 points. And every player on the court wearing red and white was smiling. On Wednesday night, IU faced that same Michigan State team. The result? Anything but the same. In their first Big Ten rematch of the season, the Hoosiers couldn’t dig themselves out of a

14-point halftime hole in an eventual 72-57 loss to Michigan State in East Lansing, Mich. “We have to find answers,” Moren said. “We have to quit making excuses and find solutions.” Prior to Wednesday night’s game, IU was on a 3-game losing skid. Moren said each loss presented its own challenges. But there was one overarching theme: a lack of toughness. It took No. 23 Minnesota until there were less than three minutes left in the game to throw its first punch. But when they did, IU laid down. For Penn State, a team sitting at the bottom of the conference standings, the first big run came at the end of the first half. The Hoosiers just took it, Moren said. They accepted it. They liked it. And they couldn’t respond. Against No. 7 Maryland, the Hoosiers showed the first glimpse of the grit Moren was looking for. After being down 24, they stood up. Midway through the second half, they made a run to cut the lead to 10. But they ran out of time. At the beginning of the

Big Ten season, Moren called her young team unpredictable. Comparing a 19-point win over the Spartans on Dec. 31 to a 15-point loss showed just that. Wednesday night didn’t answer any questions. In fact, it presented even more. “We’re still trying to figure out why both in the Penn State game and now today in East Lansing why were coming out with such a lackluster energy, effort, why we can’t figure out how to compete better on the road,” Moren said. “Part of that I guess is the youth, but we’re tired of using that as an excuse.” The Hoosiers are now 0-4 on the road in Big Ten play. They haven’t won since beating Wisconsin on Jan. 11 and have dropped six of the last seven. Over the past four games, the worst stretch of IU’s season, Moren’s postgame words have become more and more familiar. “It’s another disappointing loss,” Moren said. “It seemed like we got some momentum (in the second half ) and then gave it back to them, just with our carelessness.”

Spartan trio combines for 68 By Brody Miller brodmill@indiana.edu @Brody_Miller_

It took three players to beat IU. Aerial Powers, Tori Jankoska and Becca Mills. The three Michigan State players combined for 68 points, 36 rebounds and 15 assists. IU (12-8, 2-7), as a whole, had 57 points, 38 rebounds and 16 assists in a 72-57 loss to Michigan State (11-10, 3-7) on Wednesday in East Lansing. Powers, Jankoska and Mills ran the show against IU. With a score of 49-31 Michigan State and 15:44 remaining in the game, the three had been the only Spartans to score. By the time the game was over, they had all but four of Michigan State’s 72 points. Jankoska, a guard, finished with 28 points, 11 rebounds and six assists. Powers had a nearly identical stat line, as the only difference was her five assists. Mills, a fellow forward, put forth a modest 12 points and

14 rebounds. All three had doubledoubles. There was a point in the game where IU went on a 15-3 run and brought the deficit to six points. The Hoosiers had energy and it suddenly appeared that they had made it back into a ball game. Next thing you know, Powers assisted Jankoska on a layup. Then, Mills assisted Powers on a 3-pointer. The lead was back up to 11. Sophomore Karlee McBride made 1-of-2 free throws for IU, but on the next possession, Powers assisted Jankoska for yet another three. Jankoska finished with five 3-pointers on the night. Michigan State had regained complete control and all three baskets were made and assisted by a member of the trio. “It seemed like we gained some momentum and gave it back to them,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. Powers set a Michigan State record with her 17th double-double of the season. At halftime, Mills had

only four points while Powers and Jankoska had a combined 35. Mills went on to score eight quick points in just over four minutes to put herself in the same field as her teammates. Back on New Year’s Eve, IU defeated a then ranked Michigan State team 70-51. Mills fouled out and only played 21 minutes all game. The removal of her size down low played a part in IU outrebounding Michigan State 49-31. It opened things up for her matchup, freshman Amanda Cahill, to put up a double-double. There were no foul troubles for any member of the trio Wednesday. The three of them alone had only two less rebounds than the entire IU team and they outscored IU by 11. Cahill was held to nine points this time and sophomore center Jenn Anderson had seven points and four rebounds. The Spartans got revenge on their own court and beat IU on the perimeter and inside. “We need to quit making excuses and find solutions,” Moren said.

“The fact that both events enliven and enrich the gay community, even after the events are over, is a huge plus to these types of events,” Bauder said. Bauder said many alumni who have moved to other states are known to come back for this weekend to celebrate the community, relive Bloomington and enjoy the film festival. He said the GLBTAA brings an energy to the weekend that complements the film festival. “I think the film festival has become a jewel in the crown of Bloomington’s arts community,” Bauder said. He said not only does he feel the LGBT community benefits, but many people from the larger community of Bloomington look forward to the weekend of celebration. Both Bauder and Shumate said they look forward to the celebration weekend and expect record numbers in attendance. Shumate said he is especially excited for the public announcement of the outcome concerning the GLBTAA Scholarship Campaign. He said the GLBTAA is very proud of the success and ground-breaking results of the scholarship campaign. The exact dollar amount raised by this year’s campaign will be kept secret until the social Friday night.

on 19 attempts — just 21 percent shooting. IU shot just 38 percent from the field in the loss, well below its season mark of 48 percent. Crean said a lack of ball movement stifled his team’s ability to shoot, much as it did in a prior loss to Michigan State. “Bottom line is, as simple as this sounds, we didn’t make the pass one dribble sooner,” Crean said. “One reason we’ve been shooting at such a high percentage is because we just simplify it. We didn’t do a good enough job of playing through the guys that needed to touch the ball more.” Yogi Ferrell was the only Hoosier who matched his season-average. The junior guard scored a game-high 21 points and tallied three assists. For much of the second half, Ferrell was the only Hoosier to create anything offensively. As IU fell further and further behind, it turned to a Ferrell-centric offense — he scored 15 points in the second half, often as

four teammates stood and watched. The same Purdue fan described Ferrell’s performance. “What is he, 6-foot? 5-foot-11?” he asked after Ferrell slashed to the rim in the second half. “Scoring at will? Jeez.” Freshman guard James Blackmon Jr. added 13 points, but continued to struggle from the field. He shot just 4-of-13 on the night, including 1-of-5 from 3-point range. Sophomore forward

Troy Williams added eight points and tied for a gamehigh with six rebounds. IU never led. The Hoosiers fell behind early, but an 8-0 Boilermaker run to start the second half stretched the deficit to 19 and all but put the game away — the lead remained in double digits for the entire second half. The loss dropped IU to 15-6 on the season, 5-3 in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers have lost two of their three games since entering the national rankings Jan. 19.

Perhaps more importantly, IU fell to 88-114 all-time against Purdue. In a game that Boilermakers freshman Isaac Haas called the biggest of the year, the Hoosiers fell short. In Purdue’s post-game press conference, guard Bryson Scott couldn’t stop smiling. He was asked why Wednesday’s win mattered so much to him. He paused. Then he cracked a small smile. “‘Cause it’s Indiana,” he said.

Collin Hartman, were hesitant to leave their assignment to over-help at the risk of being beaten on a drop-off pass. If they stuck to their man, IU no longer had a rim protector. When a Purdue guards like Rapheal Davis beat a Hoosier guard off the dribble, he was presented with an open lane to the rim. It was a double-edged sword, and more often than not, IU was hurt by it. “It was pretty much just get the ball in as much as we can to bring everybody in and open it up for everybody else,” Hammons said. “I think we did that pretty early on.” On the offensive end, IU found out how hard it was to drive against a pair of 7-footers. As a team, Purdue had 10 blocks, eight of which came from Hammons, setting a new career-high. Those blocks and defensive stops let Purdue get out and run. When they could, they’d pick up a fast-break score. When they couldn’t, they’d get right back into the halfcourt offense and start again.

Serik said. “Aban & Khorshid” is a 13-minute short drama film running at 7 p.m. Thursday. Serik said it’s fantastic that people are going to see these films because it helps bring awareness to the global situation facing the LGBT community. “These films are entertaining,” Serik said. “Not something you will see every day.” “Coach just pretty much told me to make sure I established myself,” Hammons said. “I just had to step up defensively.” The good news for IU is that Purdue is an outlier. Only three other teams in the nation have two 7-footers, and none of them are on IU’s schedule. The Hoosiers will, however, have to combat the same Purdue size again Feb. 19 in Bloomington. They’ll also still have to play Wisconsin, Iowa and Maryland, each ranked in the top seven in the country in average height. The eventual return of junior forward Hanner Mosquera-Perea and his 7-foot-6 wingspan should help, but IU was already small with him. The Hoosiers won’t be growing on the trip back to Bloomington or before their next game against Rutgers on Saturday. That’s not something Crean is worried about or dreading. As he’s said time and time again, they’ll just have to figure it out. “We’re not very big,” Crean said. “But that’s not coming any time soon.”

QUEENS OF TELEVISION Weekend takes a look at the strongest women in television. Long live the queens. 1

Daenerys Targaryen, “Game of Thrones”

3

Leslie Knope, “Parks and Recreation”

Sophia Burset, “Orange is the New Black”

The tale of Daenerys Targaryen begins as a depressing one. She escapes an abusive brother only to gain an abusive husband who she eventually falls in love with but then he dies and she has to find another way to reclaim her rightful place on the Iron Throne. But, man, does she do it with style. What makes her strong Did you even read the first paragraph? This girl has survived every curveball life has thrown at her and has managed to build herself along the way. She has freed soldiers and slaves and she has crushed some of the slimiest villains in the seven kingdoms. And, uh, hello, she’s the freaking mother of dragons.

Leslie Knope is the funniest Parks and Recreation department deputy director you will ever know. She will build you an amazing park while singing some goofy songs and loading you with a lifetime of self-worth. What makes her strong Leslie is a hard worker. She has a goal to become the first female president and she will do anything to make it happen, as we have seen in the seven seasons of “Parks and Recreation.” Leslie applies the same determination and work ethic toward her friends, going to great lengths to make them happy. She is caring and compassionate and we are going to deeply miss this queen of television.

Oh, Sophia, how lost those other women would be without you. Sophia Burset stole hearts and blew minds on “Orange in the New Black” when she gave her fellow inmates a much-needed lesson in the female anatomy. What makes her strong Sophia is a transgender woman who is confident and comfortable in her skin and she’ll be damned if she’s going to let anyone take that from her. And Sophia is always there for her fellow ladies, whether it’s to do their hair, build their confidence or educate them on their own body.

Other great female characters Tina Belcher, “Bob’s Burgers” Olivia Benson, “Law and Order: Special Victims Unit” Abbi Abrams, “Broad City” Olivia Pope, “Scandal” Peggy Olson, “Mad Men” Claire Underwood, “House of Cards” Brienne of Tarth, “Game of Thrones” Jessa Johannson, “Girls” Alicia Florrick, “The Good Wife”

Annalise Keating, “How to Get Away with Murder” 2

If there is one person who embodies the definition of “fierce,” it’s Annalise Keating. She is not your average criminal justice professor, and she is not here to make nice. What makes her strong It’s not easy being Annalise. When she’s not keeping people out of jail, she has a huge group of students to educate, a cheating husband to handle and her own affair to keep in order. She is far from perfect. She is also completely unapologetic about her life choices. She sets high standards, refuses to lower herself and demands respect.

5

Temperance Brennan, “Bones” 6

Peggy Carter, “Agent Carter” 4

Agent Peggy Carter gained our respect and admiration in “Captain America” when she put a misogynistic soldier in his place. Now we see her challenging social standards and looking fab in “Agent Carter,” an ABC short series about Agent Carter’s involvement in the creation of S.H.I.E.L.D. What makes her strong Agent Carter might dress the part, but she is not your typical 1940s lady. A husband and kids aren’t her No. 1 priority. She’s a little busy saving the world. And while she’s at is, she’s going to change it. Agent Carter has no time for your misogyny, nor will she be shamed for being a woman. She’s going to protect her fellow ladies, and God help any man that tries to stand in her way.

Temperance “Bones” Brennan was a difficult woman to understand in the beginning. Aside from her outrageous intelligence, she was frighteningly cold and seemingly emotionless. But through the years we have seen her defrost into the forensic anthropologist we know and love. What makes her strong Bones is smart, like super, scary smart. And she’s not ashamed, embarrassed or modest about it. She sends a clear message that intelligence is something to be proud of and never apologized for. She reeks of confidence and refuses to change her offbeat personality for the comfort of others.

Steve Carell stunning as John du Pont “Foxcatcher” Grade: A

MOVIESTILLS DATABASE

Good mystery, bad comedy “Mortdecai” Grade: C There are angry Russians, scary terrorists and stolen Nazi art in a film full of typical characters, and “Mortdecai” is not typical. Filled with slapstick humor and lavish sets, “Mortdecai” takes the viewer across the world and gets the main character in all sorts of trouble along the way. Johnny Depp transforms himself into the character of Charlie Mortdecai, a pompous, shady British art dealer with a mustache awaiting its day of reckoning. While seeking $8 million to pay off back taxes, an interesting proposition

comes to Mortdecai’s rescue. An old friend and MI5 officer, Alistair Maitland, portrayed by Ewan McGregor, seeks Charlie’s help to find a Goya painting stolen by an international terrorist. In return for his services, Charlie will receive compensation to save him from financial doom. Intertwined within this tale is Gwyneth Paltrow’s Johanna Mortdecai. Although she is withholding sex to get Charlie to remove his atrocious mustache, she takes saving the Mortdecai estate into her own hands. She’s the true underdog of the film. We all love the underdog. But let’s be realistic. This portrayal of the lavish

lifestyles of the rich and British and the over-the-top attempts at humor missed the bar. The actors were trying so hard to be funny the movie fell just short of stupid. I mean, after Charlie accidentally shot his assistant for the 100th time, the eye rolls were so dramatic anyone could have seen them in dim theater lighting. Then, when Olivia Munn appeared, I expected some sort of enhancement in humor, only to be severely disappointed when the humor took a new level of stupidity. There really is no way to describe it unless you see it. The only saving grace was the plot was not even

remotely predictable. This film will leave you guessing until the last scene. If you can get past the jokes, you will enjoy the suspense. You’re never sure where the Goya painting is, and I give the director and writers credit for that. If you go to see this film, see it for the dynamic between Johanna, Charlie and the Goya. That’s the true relationship of the film. Otherwise, you will leave with a feeling of disappointment and an irritating question nagging at your brain: Will Johanna ever be able to convince Charlie to shave that mustache? Allison Wagner

He’s a far cry from Michael Scott. I speak of Steve Carell, of course, in his transformative portrayal of John du Pont in Bennett Miller’s 2014 awards contender, “Foxcatcher.” Before I get into Carell’s unbelievable performance, allow me to sing my praises for “Foxcatcher” as a whole. Undeniably one of the best films of the season, “Foxcatcher” is the story of a wrestler, Mark Schultz, played by Channing Tatum, and his quest for excellence, a feat he believes he’ll achieve with the coaching of the mentally unstable, richerthan-God heir to the du Pont family fortune, John du Pont. I always say the hardest thing to get right in a film — more specifically, for the director to get right — is tone. Miller has crafted a pensive, tense, unnerving film out of this real-life story. All three leads do an excellent job in conveying this tone throughout the film. Mark Ruffalo thoughtfully acts as Mark

How film is changing television ‘Togetherness’ B+ The first scene of the new HBO show “Togetherness” involves a 40-something husband named Brett attempting to initiate morning sex with his sleeping wife, Michelle. When she rejects him, Brett, played by Mark Duplass, proceeds to masturbate in bed only to wake up Michelle, played by Melanie Lynskey. These kind of embarrassing moments displaying the ennui of married life are the type of scenes that make up this new show, which was renewed this week for a second season. We are three episodes into the “dramedy” from the Duplass brothers — Mark and his brother Jay — and they have already established the groundwork for a successful show that builds on TV trends while providing some new material. To give background,

“Togetherness” is the story of Brett and Michelle, her sister Tina and Brett’s best friend Alex. It has become the cliché of television characters these days, but they are all a mess. There is no intense plot line or big event coming in the future. The show is more of a look into the lives of these four people trying to take control of the day-to-day issues of their relationships and lives. Whether it be Brett and Michelle’s marriage and dealing with a child, Alex’s struggles as an actor after being the most talented guy in high school or Tina’s dumpster fire of a love life, “Togetherness” is the tale of four people who need each other to find out where to go from here. Not exactly breaking new ground, I know. The show becomes fascinating when looking at the move television has been making recently. For background, the showrunners, Mark and Jay Duplass, are accomplished indie film writers and

Schultz’s brother, David, who gets wrapped up in the du Pont scheme as well. Channing Tatum, playing the protagonist, is probably the weakest link of the three. That’s not at all to say he isn’t good — he’s definitely wonderful — but this movie has made it clear no matter how refined the script and how magnificent the directing, Tatum is never really going to be much more than a beautiful meathead. But Carell makes every penny spent on a ticket worth it. His acting is not only career-best, it’s by far some of the best acting this year. The character of John du Pont is so difficult to play. He’s a man who’s never really had to earn a dollar in his life, yet still has to nobly fill his time, a man who begs to have independence, yet still takes every breath just to impress his elderly mother. “Foxcatcher” will probably not win the awards it deserves — “Birdman” and “Boyhood” unfortunately seem to have those in the bag. But “Foxcatcher” is without a doubt one of the best films of the year. Ike Hajinazarian

Experience

Climbing

at Hoosier Heights

directors that have been gaining a solid reputation in the Sundance-type of field for about a decade now. Movies like the Jonah Hill flick “Cyrus” and “Jeff, Who Lives at Home” are some of their more well-known examples. Five years ago, they never would have been in television. What happened? I’m not sure where it started. Television used to be the small medium that film people looked down on. “True Detective” likely played a big part in the jump. Then there are directors, such as David Fincher and Steven Soderbergh, developing shows for Netflix and Cinemax, respectively. The “golden age” of television with shows “The Sopranos” and “Mad Men” definitely altered the opinion of television from a respect standpoint. Regardless, television has become an auteur’s medium. The show that somewhat sets the stage

for “Togetherness” is 2014’s “Transparent,” which just happens to star Jay Duplass, funny. Jill Soloway developed the show for Amazon Prime and it was one of the most critically acclaimed shows of the year. It similarly brought an indie film style to the small screen — or small “stream.” Now, the Duplass brothers bring their funny and embarrassing yet warm-hearted view of day-to-day relationships to television. The show isn’t perfect. I wouldn’t say I am

hooked or anything. But they have developed four characters that I want to spend time with, which is really my primary grading scale for whether I stick with a show or not. I want to see where these characters’ lives go. Most importantly, I want to see how the Duplass brothers make the move from writing a 90-minute film to developing several episodes and seasons of a TV show.

L.A. art book fair to take place this weekend

ARTS

EDITORS: AUDREY PERKINS & KATHRINE SCHULZE | ARTS@IDSNEWS.COM

Despite low sales in the print industry, art books are still thriving. This weekend, they will be celebrated at the Los Angeles Art Book Fair. Dozens of presses, booksellers, vintage books dealers, zine makers, independent

publishers and one radio station fill the Museum of Contemporary Art, according to the LA Times. The fair is set to feature an international collection from more than 250 exhibitors.

Nature photographer to visit for Sustain IU By Kathrine Schulze schulzek@indiana.edu | @kas_schulze

As massive glaciers slowly melt into the ocean, nature photographer James Balog catches snapshots of their progression. Climate change comes into focus with photographs of its effect on the Arctic in “Changing Ice, Changing Climate: Photographs by James Balog and the Extreme Ice Survey” currently displayed in Hodge Hall at the Kelley School of Business. The exhibit is just one part of SustainIU Week, coming in February, according to an IU press release. “For many of us, it is hard to visualize and personally experience how our actions are rapidly changing remote environments like arctic glaciers,” said Jeff White, director of the Integrated Program in the Environment and an Arctic scientist, in the release. “James Balog’s stunning photography helps transport us there. The experience is both wonderful and deeply disconcerting.” The exhibit will be up until the end of March. Balog and Extreme Ice Survey have collected more than 1 million images showing the melting of glaciers in the United States, Antarctica, Austria, Bolivia, Canada, France, Iceland, Greenland and Nepal, according to the University. EIS uses dozens of Nikon

D3200 digital cameras that are set to click every half hour of daylight year-round. EIS is able to capture the receding glaciers with the cameras anchored on cliff faces above glaciers. The equipment is protected by waterproof Pelican cases and powered by a mix of solar panels and batteries, according to the exhibit. Each unit weighs more than 100 pounds, and images are downloaded as frequently as every few months or as seldom as once every two years, depending on the camera’s location, according to the exhibit. Office of Sustainability Project Coordinator Nancy Lethem said Professor Michael Hamburger and Director of the Office of Sustainability Bill Brown had the idea for the exhibit. “He’s pretty well-known for his work in illustrating the effects of climate change,” Lethem said. “His work has been published widely, including in National Geographic.” Balog has looked at global environmental change for 30 years, according to the release. Balog’s photos in the exhibit are part of EIS, which is part of Earth Vision Trust, a nonprofit founded by Balog in 2006 and based in Boulder, Colo., according to the exhibit. EIS is featured in the Emmy Award-winning

documentary “Chasing Ice” in 2012. “Chasing Ice” will be shown at 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 19 at the IU Cinema, according to the IU Cinema website. Balog will take part in a question and answer session after the screening. Balog will speak at 7:30

p.m. the day before, Feb. 18, in the Whittenberger Auditorium in the Indiana Memorial Union. Balog’s visit is part of a collaborative effort by several groups on campus, including the Office of Sustainability with IU Cinema, the Center for Integrative Photograph-

ic Studies, College Arts & Humanities Institute, the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, the Department of Geological Sciences, the Integrated Program in the Environment, the Kelley School of Business and the IMU Board. Balog will also speak with

several student groups while he is at IU, Lethem said. “I just think it’s so exciting that we can have someone of this stature, who has studied this particular question about climate change, and showing ... the ... truth of the changing climate,” Lethem said. “I think it’s really important.”

Last round of Latin music competition this weekend From IDS reports

UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA TAKES STAGE Musicians from the University Orchestra warm up before the commencement of the 419th Program of the 2014-2015 season Wednesday at the Musical Art Center.

Alex G to come to town, take stage at the Bishop By Adam Smith adbsmith@indiana.edu | @adbsmithIU

From his bedroom recording studio, Philadelphia singer-songwriter Alex G, has been creating a type of pop-rock music that has gained him a large following on the Internet. Alex G, or Alexander Giannascoli, will be bringing that music to the Bishop on Sunday night with his touring band. The stop in Bloomington is part of the musician’s brief tour with the Maryland band Teen Suicide. Local band Champs Élysées is also arranged to be performing Sunday night alongside the other two performers. Alex G has been selfreleasing his music through Bandcamp since 2010, but the release of his album “DSU” on the Orchid Tapes label in June 2014 allowed his music to reach wider audiences. Though he officially started recording music at age 12, according to TicketFly, “DSU” was the first of his albums to be professionally mastered and released on a record label. “On this record, as well as my other stuff, I usually am influenced by my relationships and experiences with people,” Giannascoli

said on his ticketing website. “I think plenty of personal obstacles have shaped my music, but nothing I would like to share.” In the time surrounding its release Alex G was featured in various music magazines like Rolling Stone and the Fader. In his review of “DSU” for Rolling Stone, Simon Vozick-Levinson compared the 21-year-old singer-songwriter to Elliott Smith and Guided By Voices, but said “the more you listen, the more obvious it is that Alex G is a bright new talent in his own right.” Following his success with “DSU,” Alex G has had his 2012 albums, “TRICK” and “RULES,” professionally mastered, and they are set for re-release later this year. Teen Suicide is a lo-fi punk band that broke up in 2012 with the group members going off to play in various other projects, however the group began playing occasional shows again last year. Now, in 2015, they have announced they are officially signing to Run For Cover Records. Although there are no set plans for the band to release new music, the label will be releasing a remastered version of Teen Suicide’s 2012 debut album, “I Will Be My

The final round of the Fifth Annual Latin American Music Recording Competition is taking place at 4 p.m. Feb. 1 in Auer Hall. The event is free and public. Three finalists will compete in the final round, according to the Jacobs School of Music. Listed in no specific order are Emmanuel Padilla on the harp, the Melos Saxophone Quartet and trombonist Felipe Brito. The jury is made up of faculty members from the music school and other distinguished members of the community, according to the music school. Jurors are set to pay close attention to two aspects of the participants’

performance. There will be a specific emphasis on the performance component where competitors display their technical ability, knowledge of style and artistic interpretation. Second, there will be a research component, which will be evaluated through the search for repertoire from Latin American music provided. This year’s final round highlights three centuries of Latin American music traditions, according to the Jacobs School of Music. The performances will blend popular and classical music. There will be an exchange between interpreting older works and adopting new music written especially for the competition.

Past winners of the Latin American Music Recording Competition include 2014’s baritone Bruno Sanchez and Hanmo Qian, a pianist and 2013’s Nicholas Mariscal on cello. The prize for the winner of the competition is the opportunity to record a CD that will be fully produced by the Latin American Music Center’s production team. Additionally, the winner will perform in a solo recital. The LAMC promotes “Latin American repertoire among gifted young artists while generating recordings that promote lesser known works from Latin America,” according to the music school. Audrey Perkins

ALEX G Tickets $10, $12 at the door 9 p.m. Sunday, the Bishop Own Hell Because There’s a Devil Inside My Body.” A remastered collection of the band’s extended plays is also in the works. Local concert promotion group Winspear is responsible for bringing the tour to Bloomington. Winspear founder Ben Wittkugel said he saw the bands had a free day between their Chicago and Pittsburgh tour dates and reached out about playing at the Bishop. Wittkugel said he thinks college students will enjoy that all of the band members are young like them. “He hasn’t played here in Bloomington before and he’s a really good fit for this market,” he said. Wittkugel said he knows a lot of people are already excited for the show and that it’s always great to see a big crowd gathered for a show. He also said he thinks touring bands are able to draw crowds and get people excited for shows in a way local bands can’t. “Everyone loves going to house shows, but this is more of an event.” Wittkugel said.

A weekend at Sundance By Lindsay Moore Liramoor@indiana.edu @_lindsaymoore

NEWS TRIBUNE SERVICE

Creepy day in the neighborhood “The Boy Next Door” D If I pay for the U-Haul, will “The Boy Next Door” please move away? Jennifer Lopez dips back into the acting pool as Claire Peterson, a high school English teacher going through a divorce. She and her son are trying to learn to get by without her husband when Noah Sandborn appears. Noah, played by Ryan Guzman, is moving in next door to take care of his uncle, but his interest quickly shifts as he and Claire share common interests and prolonged eye contact. The attraction keeps rising until the point of no return: Claire and Noah have sex. Claire is a nervous wreck after she wakes up from her night with Noah and explains what happened wasn’t his fault, taking the blame upon herself for giving in. But Noah refuses to accept what happened as a mistake.

He’s convinced the two are in love and attempts to force himself further into Claire’s life, enrolling himself into her class and getting close to her son. The more Claire pulls away, the harder Noah pushes. He tries to break her family apart, pitting her own son against her, and threatens her job. And when that’s not enough, lives become part of the game. “The Boy Next Door” is about obsession and how dangerous it can be. However, there is a subjective storyline about Claire that is not handled nor addressed properly. When Noah comes onto Claire, she says no. In fact, she says it several times. She says that it’s wrong and tries to leave, but Noah restrains her and continues his advances. Though Claire eventually stops saying no, she never gives clear, verbal consent. This is known as dubious consent. Dubcon applies to situations in which sex is not exactly nonconsensual nor consensual. Basically, it could be

interpreted that Claire was raped. And when you take into consideration that Claire was also seen drinking before her encounter with Noah, the subject becomes even murkier. “The Boy Next Door” never addresses this issue. The writers slide around it by having Claire take the blame for everything that happened and glamorizing it with well-defined abs and bulging biceps. And while we’re on the subject of abs and biceps, let’s talk about just how unrealistic Noah Sandborn is. Not only is he ridiculously good-looking, he’s apparently some kind of martial arts master, a great mechanic, a clever computer hacker, a lover of classic literature, a skilled gunman and a sex god. He’s also 19 years old. I’m not a teenage boy, nor do I claim to be an expert on them, but I just have this feeling, a tiny suspicion, that those are not typical hobbies or characteristics of most teenage boys. Let’s also talk about how

the guilt and awkwardness weighing on Claire is with the fact she slept with a teenager who, though of legal age, is enrolling in her school. He’s a high school student. Yet it’s hard to feel Claire’s awkwardness and guilt when Noah looks too old to even be an intern at Google. The actor, Ryan Guzman, is 27 years old. And he looks 27 years old. The man couldn’t pass for a teenager if you put him in a Hollister T-shirt and a DC snapback. Guzman’s presence just proves this movie was about sex. It wasn’t a lesson to not sleep with your students because they might decide you’re in love and try to murder your family and run off into the sunset with you, which is a lesson you really shouldn’t need anyway. There was no lesson, no moral, no point to this movie. It was just a 91-minute platform for Guzman to flex his muscles and J-Lo to show off her heavenly blessed hair. I am now accepting donations for that U-Haul. Lexia Banks

The 2015 Sundance Film Festival lineup proved to be the perfect response to #OscarsSoWhite. The independent film festival represented life in the 21st century far better than the Academy nominations, which primarily featured heterosexual white men and women. Sundance Film Festival founder Robert Redford noted this on opening night. “We believe in diversity, and freedom of expression is very much fundamental to us,” Redford said according to the Associated Press. “You see films here that are going to upset other people, but that’s okay. We will do everything in our power to keep (diversity) alive here.” Crowds flocked to films and panels showcasing diversity. Filmgoers overflowed the premiere of “Dope,” leaving some ticketholders without seats at the Library Centre Theatre. “Dope” chronicles three inner city outcasts’ adventures after they’re invited to a drug dealer’s birthday party. When writer and director Rick Famuyiwa and his production partners, Forest Whittaker and Pharrell Williams, first introduced the film to Hollywood studios, there was limited interest. “I don’t know if there’s a recognition on the part of those who make these decisions that we’re living in a world that doesn’t look like what’s being reflected on screen,” Famuyiwa said, according to the Associated Press. Sundance challenges the typically white-washed industry through its Diversity Initiative, which contributed files for the report “Race & Ethnicity in Independent Films: Prevalence of Underrepresented Directors and the Barriers They Face produced” from the University of Southern California. The report found that only 10.7 percent of directors were from underrepresented racial or ethnic groups amongst 700 top grossing Hollywood films from 2006 to 2012. In comparison, representation of minority directors was almost double at Sundance. Based

on films shown between 2002 and 2013, 20.1 percent of directors at Sundance were of a minority background. Sundance was also home to a variety of kickass ladies both on and off screen this year. As part of Sundance’s Women’s Initiative, the ultimate girl power ensemble was assembled for the Power of Story: Serious Ladies panel. Writers, directors and feminist extraordinaires Mindy Kaling, Lena Dunham, Kristin Wiig and Jenji Kohan joined forces to discuss anti-heroes, archetypes and women in the industry. Based on Sundance’s research project “Exploring the Barriers and Opportunities for Independent Women Filmmakers Phase I and II,” female directors at Sundance outnumbered their Hollywood counterparts by 48.1 percent in 2013. There was plenty of room for women in front of the camera as well. The midnight premiere of “Reversal” was packed with fans eager to see kidnapping victim, Eve, regain control of her life as she captured her kidnapper and rescued his other victims. Sundance raised the bar not only in content but also in storytelling technique. Fan favorite “Tangerine” features two Californian transgender prostitutes roaming Santa Monica Boulevard. Director Sean Baker filmed exclusively on iPhone 5s’s as part of the Next section, which focuses on forward-thinking creativity and storytelling in a digital landscape. “The pipeline of young talent interested in telling stories is there, but somewhere along the way, they fall out of the business equation, of getting that work made,” said Keri Putnam, executive director of the Sundance Institute, according to the Associated Press. “So as money comes into the equation, diversity — whether it’s gender or racial and ethnic diversity — seems to step out.” If nothing else, these packed theatres, overflowing lines and overenthusiastic fans at Sundance show we’re yearning for these new innovative storytellers to be in the equation. Here’s hoping the Academy starts recalculating.
